Yeah, unless we put 70+ points past the USA, then I won't be pleased. Our one chance to hammer the USA at something.

I was just 'meh' really. I was expecting it tbh.From the BBC. So bollock-crushingly inevitable I'm not even upset.

Same here. Must be such a shame for all you England fans, arguably your best player keeps getting these injuries. Really it's a shame for world rugby, as I'm a bif of a Wilko fan now after seeing him on the 2005 Lions tour where he really impressed me with some tough defence, much braver than what I thought he would be.

Well we're so used to him not playing it's more like a bonus when he is playing, rather than a hit when he isn't.

Olly Barkley may be broken too now....
From the Beeb.
Jonny's definitely out of the saffie game & now Barkley's been injured in training. As he was our last recognised fly-half one can't help but wonder why he wasn't wrapped in cotton wool.
Catt to 10, with Farrell at 12 with kicking duties if the worst comes to the worst I'd guess.

Vickery suspended for 2 matches
From the Beeb.
Oh, dear. You have to smile, don't you? No fly-halfs & now no captain. Actually, FWIW, it's good news really as Stevens is a far more dynamic presence & worth his place in the XV. There's no way Ashton would've dropped his captain, so this is something of a silver lining.

You get your wish. Farrell to start at 10.
Dear lord. That it's come to this. English union goes into its most important game since the last world cup with a bloke who's never played a senior game at fly-half ever in situ. I'd like to know when was the last time he played first receiver in league, if it comes to that. I don't want to labour the point, but given Sarries don't see fit to play him there, why are England suddenly starting now?
Two scrum-halves on the bench seems excessive too, but I'm guessing that they're the last two men standing, back-wise.
